$7.2 Million Settlement Reached in Sprint Case
Stueve Siegel Hanson was co-lead counsel in a nationwide class action filed against Sprint seeking reimbursement for thousands of Sprint customers who had allegedly been overcharged for long distance services. The lawsuit alleged that Sprint improperly charged casual caller rates and/or surcharges (which were generally higher than subscriber rates) for "direct-dialed" long-distance calls.
Sprint denied the material factual allegations and legal claims asserted in the lawsuit, including any and all charges of wrongdoing or liability arising out of any of the conduct, statements, acts or omissions alleged, or that could have been alleged, in the suit.
The case was litigated for more than four years and resulted in a settlement allowing affected Sprint subscribers to submit claims for prepaid calling cards, which for most of the class members was more than they would likely have been overcharged by Sprint.
